onyerleft Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Is it possible to select a default set of panels in the Right Studio when new documents are opened? I often use the same panels and it would be helpful to not have to rearrange them for each new document. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 In my experience the panels stay arranged as I have left them from document to document, even across shutdowns and restarts of the application.

Pšenda Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Me too. Edit: "to not have to rearrange" This only applies to Panels, or do you not save Toolbar and Tools panel settings?

The question is, of course, meant for the OP, so a copy of its quote - not yours. Of course, they will remain for me also, but the OP could have a problem saving the modified cfg / xml files to disk or in the Affinity AppData folder.

onyerleft Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 Thanks Walt, it's not working that way for me. I work with many files open at the same time, and if I have one open while opening a new file, the settings on the panels instantly change. I keep getting panels opened, somehow, that I never use. It gets kind of annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStef Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I find this question interesting for different purpose. In Publisher i.e. : When I re-instal affinity product on a new device, so I can export my sets or keep the file where they are store, I could have different set : when I work on a book, when I work on PDF file, etc... So, saving sets and restore them could be really time saver... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
